When she gets it right….she really gets it right.
Of course, while eight years in the game should have seen her hit a 10 and stay on it at all times, there’s no denying that Rihanna performances are a joy to watch when well executed.
Need an example?
Check out the footage pulled from her show at France’s Montpellier hours ago, which saw her give fans their money’s worth when she performed her #1 single ‘Diamonds‘!
Press play below…
Her performance comes after her Grammy award winner songwriter The Dream praised her in an interview with V Magazine.
Hitting the mag to push his critically praised ‘IV Play‘, the maestro explained that out of all the entertainers he has written for, the ‘Loud‘ singer serves his sound the most justice.
I appreciate when you guys give her credit cause i know its not easy for you guys to do…. 🙂
She always does this song justice! Love It
She is great on her BAllads… in an era when ballads dont sell..Rihanna sings, delivers and sell them!! now post STAY

I’m just upset she can’t hit the best note of the song!
Her hair looks a mess
Her voice is annoying. What is she known for?
BYE GURL YOUR COMMENT IS ANNOYING
Why is she wearing one of Beyonce’s Hand-Me-Down Weaves? She been rummaging through Beyonce’s trash?
Next.
“Her [Rihanna] very unique, bright yet husky, Contralto voice is the only vocal that I could imagine having ever sung this song the way that I had hoped and I will ever remain thankful for the success she has given the song. I listen to her version and I cry, at times. I love her unconditionally.”
Sia: ‘Sydney Morning Herald’ (2012)
This performance was lovely. 😉
Honey Rhi is an ALTO NOT CONTRALTO. She doesnt have range like that. Stop tryn so damn hard booboo. Go Rhi…do yo thang!
Why are you coming for Jared when SIA (the woman who wrote the song) said it? Your Nicki obsessed flip flopping ass is always shading and complimenting Rih in the same breath. 🙄 And FYI Rihanna IS capable of contralto notes. Listen to Kisses Don’t Lie and her background vocals in Firebomb. 🙂
@Navy Sailor
Exactly and thank you Babe.
And this is why I hardly ever respond to anyone I don’t consider worthy of acquiring a response from me – case in point: ^^^The Above^^^.
Also, in technical, operatic, terms/vocal classification, Rihanna’s voice would be described as being a “Lyric Contr-ALTO”… Where does ‘it’ think the word “Alto” comes from? LOL.
@jared girl you and yo trailor park ass family can suck my big black d*** and @navi you and yours can eat my menestrating p****! and for the record i wasn’t fuckn coming comn for that trashy f**, whom i really LIKED VERY MUCH…til that little pathetic sissy just made that statement. I was stating the TRUTH! She is NOT a contralto she’s an ALTO. There was NOTHING i said that was coming for that inbred fucka cause, AS I STATED, i actually LIKED her…til now. But you @navi b**** i’ve NEVER cared for yo B**** ASS! You run around here with yo bipolar ass flipping one way and flopn another. And @jared you little pathetic white b**** i just may drag yo BITCHASS everytime i c yo PUNKASS name since you just made that smart ass remark following in behind this STANK P**** S*** @NAVI. F*** both of yall hoez!! (waxes bikini line)
and contraltos can SING all parts, SHE CAN’T!! she’s an alto you inbred trailor park loooooser! FYI: if this isnt the REAL @jared i apologize TO YOU not the fake jared or that s*** @navi. cause you know ppl steals name on this site
A contralto sings all parts? Lmao where do you get your information? Girl bye. A contraltos voice is DEEPER than thst of an alto you imbecile. I.e. brandy, Anita baker, Toni Braxton… And do you think I give a f*** whether you like me or not? You are nothing more than a pressed 14 year old p**** sitting behind a computer screen babe. Unlike you, I have a life 🙂
BTW honey you’ve never seen me flip flopping anything. I like who I like, and dislike who I dislike. I give people chances too…I never straddle the fence. Unlike your nicki stalking ass. CALL ME EVERY NAME IN THE BOOK GURL….at the end of the day I s*** on you in every way possible heaux.
Smoooooches!!!!

all THREE of yall wang p**** hoez shouldve been aborted…hell for ONCE i was just a fact and yall s*** tryna go in on me…TRUUUUST and believe yall don’t want ONE sec of this.
Omg
So that s what it looks like to sell eut an actual STADIUM and not just to hop on festival to pretend to have stadium status ????
Go riri!
Stadiums in Japan and Brazil have been done sweety #Getyourfactsright
This was decent.
She did good she always does great with this song..
Tell em
It’s the same old s***. In 2 days there’ll be a video posted saying Rihanna can’t sing. It’s the same thing over and over. I clock it everytime.
Well she cant. I love her but she cant really sing. Ijs
That’s because she can’t. She sounds good singing this particular song but in all honesty, the b**** isn’t consistent.
The navy will not want to talk about that . Blonde with highlights and thick. Yass she is original. A mess.
Not impressed at all. Sell your singles and book those not full stadiums. Your live will always suck
*watches MC’s recent performances of Beautiful*
OH……
Oh even right now Slayriah Godrey can’t sing circles around Rihanna and other pop girls combined 🙂 #FACT #beautiful
Lol I respect mariah as a legend and trailblazer, but LIESSSSS. Nothing but f****** LIESSSSS!!!
there goes this @navi B**** again acting like Rhi can sing and attackn ppl whose opinion differ and SWEARING that because ppl state the FACT that she CANT sing that they dont like her. B**** mariah could be DEAD and sing circles around Rhi. NO BIG DEAL!! it takes NOTHING away from Rhi accomplishments
SO AVERAGE…..
@MARIAHISMUSIC1
B****…
I suggest you concern yourself with your disaster of a ‘favourite’ and leave Rihanna alone.
“A.I, GMA, SUMMER JAM >>> ALL HORRIFYING PERFORMANCES from a, so called, VOCAL LEGEND?
Even Ms. Gladys Knight, who is 27 years older than Mimi is slaying her entire 2008+ vocal performances on her current tour and so is Barbra Streisand who is on her world tour too and she is 36 years older.
What’s SHOTriah doing?
Dressing like a S***, Gawking down Vodka and B**** Slapping Nick around, to take care of dem babies, all the while begging for relevancy from the younger crowd.
LMFAO. HAVE A SEAT!!!
OMG kiiiii
F** B****
She actually sounded cool here.
Loves IT
You guys should really see her live, she’s AMAZING!
Barclays center was rocking in May!!!
Giving me Chewbacca realness in this video though.
1:23 lip sync?
What happened at 1:23? Was she lipping?
where is that F** @navisailor now to answer THAT question?? Prolly in some back alley getn the s*** f***** outta him by 12 dudes. #IMMADRAGTHATSLUTNAVISAILORTODAY
Actually I’m sitting at my WORK DESK laughing at you low lifed peasants. 😆 *straightens tie* oh I really have these queens UPSET! 😆
h** im at my desk AT WORK too NNN WIT!!!!? not too upset u POWER BOTTOM, i just wanted to make sure you saw this dragn from me dragn yo B**** ASS! and you mean you adjusted yo BLOUSE sissied punk #jobcomplete
I liked this performance. Well done Rihanna.
I havent seen her do a bad performance of Diamonds….
B**** prolly still have n** in her throat, sounds like it
Truth: A contralto is the lowest of female singers so Rihanna being a
Contralto is about right since her range where she sings comfortably isn’t that big
And contraltos arnt big singers. They usually have low husky or dark voices compared to mezzos
Or sopranos.
OK… i can accept that from YOU @ music. this is why i was saying she wasnt: A contralto is a type of classical female singing voice whose vocal range is the lowest female voice type,[1] with the lowest tessitura.[2][3] The contralto’s vocal range falls between tenor and mezzo-soprano; typically between the F below middle C (F3 in scientific pitch notation) to the second G above middle C (G5), although at the extremes some voices can reach the D below middle C (D3) or the second B♭ above middle C (B♭5).[1]
this gives the impression that she has ‘range’. But imma listen to those song that s*** @navisailor recommended because i CAN be wrong sometimes. Thank you for noticing that i wasn’t coming for anyone…AT FIRST! I was just giving an opinion, it’s on NICKI blog that i just come for…EVERYONE WHO STANS FOR HER. LOL
She has her nights, and when it’s her night, she kills it! Her voice is one of a kind and she always dose this song justice. And it’s my favorite song and I think it’ll never get old.
Stop!!! she was standing still and still singing with a backtacking moving her arms while the audience did her job as usual. IMAGE!!! nothing more and she could not hit the notes, come on! If this is all it takes too please you just drop off your money in a box for her and send it. She is terrible LIVE… IMAGE.. HER NIGHTS.. None of Rihanna’s songs require talent it’s just the way it is. They are well written and produced for her limitless talent that has set her IMAGE up there.. She has nice songs but she cant do nothing for them. Rihanna’s concerts consists of this: her coming out cussing, grabbing her self, hollaring the name where she is at a million times, dancing looking like she is retarded and singing off key with a backtrack. She spends more time talking too you than doing her job of showing you what an image can do pathetic…
MEH. People only call this amazing because its good for Rihannas standards. Put up against the average performer doing a ballad its doesn’t really stand a chance. But it was OK nonetheless.
Not bad. She always does this and “stay” the best. I think she should do more ballads, it suits her voice the best.
Awe this 12 year old TRUTH phaggot is stalking my every move now. How cute. I love it when you dedicate your blood, sweat and tears to me. It warms my heart. Stay pressed boo!
eatcho mammy sour tasting p**** f**…in fact how bout you FIND AND KEEP A MAN YOU MANLESS S***!! and press yo wrinkled p****! 😀 im good now butch queen in some pumps. i’ve drug u enuf. on to more relevant things like plucking my lashes. #TOOTLES
her voice + ballads = heaven.
You spelt hell wrong.
You spelt rihanna is the best performer of this century wrong.
